for the Tech Talent Project
The Tech Talent Project is a nonpartisan nonprofit project fiscally sponsored by New Venture Fund that addresses the pressing need for tech talent in government to effectively implement nonlegislative policy, provide services, and address emerging technologies like AI. Recent shifts in the digital labor market present an unprecedented opportunity to accelerate this work in the federal government. (Substrategy: Executive Branch)
